Starts off as a social drama with comedy touches, but switches around halfway through to become a lighter and more uplifting film. It's doesn't make all that much sense really, but the characters are fun and fans of whisky are sure to appreciate the setting. It's a pretty basic drama, but it's not a bad watch.

Early Ken Loach film on which he built his career. I'm not too familiar with his work yet, but from the looks of it there isn't too much for me there. If you like kids growing up in rather dire circumstances than this might be for you, I grew tired pretty quickly of the uninteresting lead and the grim and noisy environment that surrounds him. Bradley does well enough in the lead, but his character simply isn't all that interesting. The drama is predictable, Loach's visual style isn't very attractive, the soundtrack is terrible and there's little room for anything else but drama. It's not difficult to see why this became popular, it just isn't for me.Read all
